I'm honestly speechless with this VST. It's incredible to see a fully free plugin that is so complete and capable of competing with well-known, paid synths — yet still doesn't get the recognition it deserves. You can clearly feel the care put into the development, especially in terms of performance and optimization. It runs extremely light, adapts well to the system, and works perfectly even on low-end laptops, which is rare these days. This VST truly saved me, since I produce on a lightweight laptop. High-quality sound, easy to use, powerful, and clearly designed by someone who understands producers' real needs. NAKST VSTs are definitely among my favorites and will always be part of my workflow. Huge thanks for this amazing work.

I rarely comment on anything, but NAKST truly deserves a thank you. Congratulations on your amazing work.

This is one of the best free synthesizers that I've tinkered around with. I'd say it's mostly ideal for tracks in the trance umbrella, because of the factory preset library (one of the best I've heard, including commercial synthesizers) and the unison per main oscillators being modeled off of the JP8000 supersaw.

The workflow of this synth is also really intuitive, everything is clearly laid out and quality patches can be dialed in with minimal effort. This includes the effects section, where adequate modulation and spatialisation can be done with little tweaking. This also applies to the arpeggiator / sequencer, where even if they're a little basic, great results can be made from them. Really nice for the price of nothing.

Regency allows you to easily create unique waveforms and route modulations, and the UI is incredibly easy and fun. It's also one of the only modern PD synths that is both modern and free.

So much fun to play with. Easy to understand for a relative noob like me. It just works, out of the box. Usually i run it in reaper but it also runs fine in carla under Idaeil.

Very impressive synth, Great arp/gate. Really fat meaty synth, two thumbs up. Great sounding effects, easy layout !.

The perfect combination of sound sources with ability to modulate. The only problem is the Mod envelopes do not have a visual representation of the ADSR. I had to do some hunting for the right spot to make adjustments.

Well, this is my favorite go-to hybrid subtractive synthesizer. It has a powerfully flexible arpeggiator-sequencer on the effects page of Apricot, and it is freeware. I sometimes and always use this free FL plugin for my Sparta Bases. Thanks a lot, nakst.
